Yes! Bossa Blue is an amazing group who loves to play. They played as background for my wedding..and will do short gigs. They play salsa-jazz, and are so good. I have many guests tell me they were an amazing band, and they were so easy to work with. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Here is the website, you will not be disappointed.

The guys from One, Two Tree are awesome. You can find them on facebook. The whole band is at Sandbar tonight! If you just want a couple of people then they play a stripped down acoustic set, so nice. Plus they have a lot of friends in Carp and will definetely be well received.

Are you planning to pay the musicians or are you looking for a freebie?

Thanks for your comments! I can pay a small fee. It is a groundbreaking event for an affordable housing addition in Carpinteria. Any style is OK as long as it isn't too overwhelming!

Try Vincent and Vedant...a reasonably priced, high quality crowd pleasing duo that specializes in danceable Flamenco/Gypsy jazz with violin and percussive guitar...They sound like 5 musicians for the price of 2...I had them at my last party and they were a megahit! Great guys as well...Call Vincent at 805-679-3154
